TNCM ATC

I seem to have problems with my ATC in TNCM. ATC acts as though TNCM is an un-controlled airfield. Is there a proper afcad, or have I overlooked placing a file. i used the automatic installer...this is the FSX version by the way. Regarding traffic, there does not seem to be too much life taking place at the airport. I have the FSX slider set to 59% at this time.

If there isn't a lot of traffic at TNCM even with UT, WoAI, Mytraffic etc., I recommend adding FSX GA-Traffic:

After installing it will take a few minutes to generate the traffic. If you set GA traffic to 100% in FSX settings TNCM should come to life.

Thanks for the info, however my real problem is contacting ATC.

It does not give the option to request a clearance for landing or take off. it treat the airport as though it is an un-controlled airport, so you have to announce your position for base, final, etc.

any ideas how to rectify this problem.

I think there was an update that fixed that, download the latest installer or do a search.
